Tripwire’s David Hensley says Valve’s VR felt “like a holo deck”

Wait … that’s not Gabe.

The full presentation of Valve’s VR prototype (which Steamdb thinks could going by the name ‘Vortex‘) will take place later today at Steam Dev Days, but Tripwire’s David Hensley has already had a go with it and has tweeted a series of extremely positive impressions.

He states that the VR demo felt like “being in a lucid dream state” and compares it to Star Trek’s holodeck.

If all of that is accurate, Valve’s VR project could be something rather special. There should be more impressions emerging from the Steam Dev Days event over the next 24 hours, so we’ll be keeping an eye out for them.
